Spent a few days over 4th of july. Walkable to good restaurants and close to downtown/Freedom Trail. Able to view fireworks from this boat. VERY RELAXING VACA!

If reading the VRBO ad it indeed notes a kitchenette…. In reality, there is no heating devices of any kind allowed on the boat per owners insurance. This includes a toaster or electric grill. We brought food for dinner but were unable to cook anything as the grill on the dock was out of gas. We did go out nightly for dinner but we were looking forward to a dinner or 2 at home with the grandchildren. The boat and host otherwise was great! Jon was interactive and knowledgeable.

We had a great stay on the boat. Jon showed us everything we needed to know to make the most of our stay both on the boat and in Boston. Beautiful, safe, well-kept marina property. Ferry to Long Wharf just a few piers down. We had a blast. Great way to experience Boston!!

My husband and I booked this yacht as a fun change from a hotel on our last night in Boston. Jon is a wonderful host and took the time to share tips around the area and his wife had made us delicious muffins on top of several other nice touches. Our boys (ages 9 and 11) thought it was the coolest experience ever. The only bummer is we wish we had more time 😊. We hope to be back and highly recommend!

The property owner is awesome. We had a great time!

Outstanding Different Enjoyable Everything we had expected and more Jon is great and a huge thanks to Karen

Great option for a unique stay in the Boston area with great access to downtown via a short, easy, inexpensive ferry ride.

Stayed during the Boston marathon. The host was friendly and provided a lot of information about getting around town, things to do and places to eat.

We took our son and his girlfriend to Boston for part of their college spring break. We wanted to stay somewhere unique and had never done a boat before. I was a bit hesitant but it ended up to be so much fun and the kids loved it. The pastries provided and little items in the fridge were a special touch and much appreciated! Great location!

Great location for a family trip in Boston. Jon was a pleasure to work with and gave us his local knowledge. Transportation was convenient and the North End is walkable. The kids loved sleeping on the boat. The boat is spacious enough to hang out on a rainy day. Would gladly stay there again. Logistics - laundry at the top of the pier. Boston Water Taxi can pick up or drop off on the face dock of pier 8 if you call them ahead of time.

The boat we stayed in was very nice. John is an awesome host. The muffins for us was such a thoughtful thing. Would defiently recommend for a unique experience in Boston

You won’t regret staying on the Green Turtle ll. Jon and Karen made our stay in Boston so memorable. We will definitely reach out when we are back in the area. Thank you again for everything… tips for where to eat, things to do in the city and of course Karen’s homemade pastries.

Jon & Karen go the extra mile to be sure all of their guests are well taken care of, from the inside scoop on restaurants to water bottles, juice, coffee and pastries on the boat! The location and the water are tranquil to come back to after a day of touring the city.

Wish we could have spent more time there... It is a quiet, comfortable place to stay.

The host was amazing! Went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable! Would stay again.

One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed in. We had a great time in Boston and our accommodation at the Green Turtle were awesome. Thanks Jon we had the time of our life Thank you 😘

The property owners made us feel so welcome! They were very knowledgeable about the area and gave great tips on how to get around and suggested wonderful restaurants. We love Boston and the opportunity to stay on a yacht in the harbor made it a unique and special experience!

Awesome way to enjoy Boston staying on the water!!

We loved staying on the boat and seeing all of the great things around Boston. Jon was terrific and gave us such great ideas and options for things to see and getting around easily. They are wonderful hosts and you will enjoy the accommodations. I highly recommend this for anyone considering staying here. We are a family of 5 with grown children and we fit comfortably. Parking was easy and convienient, easy to locate the pier and very safe. A+++ VRBO!

What an experience for a summer visit to Boston. We stayed on Green Turtle II and our friends stayed on Green Turtle 1 for a weekend getaway to Boston. The location was perfect to see a concert at TD Garden, eat in North End and explore Charlestown. Our hosts Karen and Jon were fantastic in sharing all the best local spots and ensuring our stay was perfect including homemade baked goods. Ditch the hotel and plan your stay at Green Turtle.

So much more fun than a hotel! Proximity to Downtown Boston and the North End in particular. No need for a car and battling traffic. A great experience that our friends are already talking about doing themselves. See you next summer!

What a great place to stay in/near Boston! Wife, kids, and I were rocked gently to sleep in Jon and Karen’s yacht. Jon met us at the parking lot on the pier, walked us to the yacht, and showed us all the ropes. He is extremely gracious, kind, and patient. The boat has great accommodations including queen fore and aft bedrooms, and a pull out in the living room. There’s a kitchenette, back patio, bow, and top captains area. There’s tons of room! We walked a short distance into Charlestown for dinner, which was super convenient. You should consider making meal reservations ahead of time. We walked right past the USS Constitution, a nice outdoor bar, and a playground on our way back. The surrounding boats and well-lit dock are very peaceful at night, almost as amazing as watching the sunrise while drinking fresh-brewed coffee from the yacht on the water! Hosts also included cereal/muffins for breakfast for us. Shower was hot and with quality shampoo (as opposed to most hotels). Check out was easy. We would for sure come back! Thanks Jon and Karen!

We loved our stay! The beds were sooo comfortable and the yacht had lots of room to gather for drinks and coffee in the morning! We had a great time!

It was clean convenient and Jon was super professional he met us at the gate help with the luggage explained how to get and use local transportation to get to the attractions we want to visit. He formalized us with local restaurants and their locations. The boat gently rolled us to sleep and we really enjoyed seating on deck with our favorite beverage It was an experience we are looking forward to repeating in the near future.

Very friendly, helpful host, John. Ideal location away from the buzz of the city. Easy access on the ferry to city. Boat well equipped, clean and comfortable. Thankyou for a wonderful introduction to Boston.

jon and Karen are great hosts - accomodated my early arrival without a question, delicious pastries and checked back as needed. would highly recommend if you are looking for a different kind of accommodation!

This was the best part of my Boston stay, even though there were torrential rains while we were checking in! Jon met us in the parking lot and assisted with our belongings. He went over everything thoroughly on the boat and gave us pointers on how to get around town. The yacht was impeccably clean and stocked with everything we would need for our stay. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for something a little different and away from the overcrowded streets of Boston.

Thanks for the wonderful stay!

Wonderful hosts who go above and beyond to make their guests feel welcome and comfortable. Our party of 4 thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay thanks to Jon and Karen. Great location, easy to get to all Boston has to offer, plus great baked goods and essentials from the hosts. Thanks to Jon and Karen for making our family reunion a happy, worry free event. We miss the Green Turtle already! Dave, Laura, Mike & Dianne

First, Jon and Karen are superb hosts. They supplied paper products, coffee, tea, milk, juices, yogurt, and water. Spectacular! And…the best muffins and blueberry bread I’ve had in quite a long time! Second, the location is great. Easy to walk to downtown or the water taxi. In 4 days we walked over 80k steps!!! Third, you’re on a boat! How unique! Very relaxing to sit on the decks and great rooms to sleep in. So cool! Thank you Jon and Karen for a great experience and VRBO stay!!

Jon made our stay absolutely pleasurable. We really enjoyed his presence and his knowledge of all things nautical. Wicked friendly guy, almost felt like family… in a weird kind of way.
